Welcome to the Barn Owl
The Barn Owl has a long and eventful history, dating back to the late 17th century when it was known as the Golden Farmer, it also had a spell of being called 'the Cricketers'. The pub moved to its current location in the 1820s and changed its name to the Jolly Farmer in 1823. We decided a new start deserved a new name and the Barn Owl felt a perfect fit.
We received the keys in July this year and are thrilled to be breathing life back into this beautiful pub, which had been closed for well over a year. We plan to be pouring pints by Christmas all being well and are currently looking for a team to help us do just that!
Our menus
Being foodies at heart, our menu, is something of an eclectic mix, striking a balance of hearty pub classics, complemented by more exotic influences from around the world. It changes regularly and reflects the seasons but always offers a mix of traditional British dishes alongside something a little different.
We're currently working on our opening menu with the chef team but to whet your appetite, click on the link below:
- The Sustainable Restaurant Association's Food Made Good Standard
- Coeliac UK AccreditedWe are proud to have the processes in place to meet this standard and serve gluten free food safely.
- AA and VisitEngland - Visitor ReadyThis badge displays a commitment to operating safely so consumers can visit with confidence.
We’re lucky to have lots of attractions close by, so we thought we’d put a list together, in case you fancied heading along to one before or after you visit us.
